Chapter 953: Collective Confusion
Why did the audience scold? Because the concept of watching 6 episodes in advance of 50 yuan is a "whole package", which is more than the VIP authority, so it is nicknamed VVIP. In addition to the factor of breaking the contract with the user, is it worth scolding? In fact, there is still room for discussion.
However, the advance screening of each episode of 3 yuan can not see the finale at one time, which is equivalent to a model similar to the network serial update, and it is expensive.
It's very unpleasant to buy a super screen and not be able to see the finale, and genuine users choose to buy a super screen for each episode instead of the whole package at this point in time today, that is, December 11th, and if you calculate it a little, you will know that the total amount of money you need to spend to see the ending is more than 50 yuan, which is not cost-effective inside and out.
Isn't this looking for scolding?
In this case, why not look at the .asxs. Chinese network, and don't get any VVIP qualifications, everyone has to pay separately for each episode, okay? It is also equivalent to the shelf subscription of .asxs., the first few episodes of free episodes are equivalent to the public chapters of .asxs., how simple are the rules? So there is no problem of being ahead of the curve, you don't even want to watch it if you don't pay, how can you experience it with paid members? How cost-effective is the money spent for paying for content?
As for breach of contract? Ouch, anyway, you have already defaulted on the screening ahead of time!
As for the user experience, oh yes, anyway, you advocate that users pay for a single episode, and simply ban the ads of single episode paying users, so that the user experience is also greatly improved, isn't it the best of both worlds?
Uncle Sheng was also in the group, and he couldn't help but join in after seeing Chu Yuanxi vomiting: But don't forget to knock out all the pirated copies first. Otherwise, .asxs.Chinese.com is your example.
Chu Yuanxi: Hey, don't you see the momentum of the penguins to fight piracy? That's really catch and kill, and fight to death. And if you look at people's "pay for content" publicity, it can be said that they have spared no effort, and I think it's completely okay!
Uncle Sheng: I saw it, when will China Literature Group take the same effort to crack down on piracy, and the life of online writers should be much better, right?
Zhang Dongdong didn't say a word in the group, and said in his heart, what are you two beeping? Only such a popular drama is qualified to talk about paying for content, is it good? No more than five a year! If you dare to charge by the episode, users can choose not to watch it! The state of the TV series "Out of the Troubled Times" is quite dangerous, and if you really pay by the episode according to Chu Yuanxi's tricks, I don't know if it will be cold directly.
Today, the broadcast of TV dramas throughout the year has basically been released, and a comprehensive ranking has also been produced. "Celebrating More Than Years" ranked first without suspense, and "Chen Qingfu", which caused a huge topic in the middle of the year, was the runner-up, and these two popular works also made Penguin Films the biggest winner in 2019, showing great influence.
The so-called popularity ranking not only counts the playback, but also the audience's discussion on the Internet has also entered the statistical caliber, integrating the data of Maoyan, Weibo, a certain petal, etc., but not Douyin. Therefore, although the number of broadcasts of "Out of the Mountain in Troubled Times" is not low, its comprehensive ranking is only eighth, behind "It's All Good" and "The Twelve Hours of Xijing".
This year, traditional film and television companies have made great strides back, and Penguin has the momentum to take over the popularity of TV dramas in an all-round way, and five of the TOP15 hit dramas are related to Penguin, and the other two are naturally dwarfed.
iQIYI produced only two shortlisted, and as a result, there is also a "Lingjian Mountain" co-produced by Rub Penguin, and only "Icebreaker" is truly self-made. And Youtu changed the state of being pressed under him by iQiyi in the past, and was shortlisted for three films, in addition to "Twelve Hours" and "Out of the Mountain in Troubled Times", there is also a hot drama "East Palace" at the beginning of the year, "Are you in love?
This year, 3,000 film and television companies have died silently, and the narrowing of capital channels has made the industry adjust significantly. Among them, Zhang Dongdong's studio has gradually entered the field of vision of capital through the popular "Out of the Mountain in Troubled Times", and has recently launched a B round of financing, with a valuation of 1.5 billion yuan, and then asked Chu Yuanxi if he was willing to subscribe for a little bit of shares in this cold winter.
This valuation is obviously high, but outsiders don't know the root of Zhang Dongdong, her valuable part is actually the relationship with Shanying and Taishantai, and in other aspects, especially the content team, there is not much difference from those 3,000 companies that have not fallen into decline and are close to bankruptcy, there is no valuable IP reserve, no binding stars or potential artists, and in fact, she does not hug the thighs of Youtu, but she has a good relationship with Guan Xin.
But next year's TV drama environment has a difficult scripture for every family, and I don't know what new policies will be introduced, so I don't know what role her advantage can play.
But anyway, there is not much money, Chu Yuanxi thinks that in the future, Ba Ren Media and Ba Ren Information will definitely need to use Zhang Dongdong, after all, people also helped later, so they subscribed for a share of 10 million with a big stroke.
In fact, although the number of subscriptions is small, it is very important for Zhang Dongdong, because it can be compared to the cornerstone investors in the IPO, which is a stabilizer for expanding equity. Moreover, Zhang Dongdong can take it out and flicker, announcing his strategic relationship with the Baren Group, which is easy for people to make up some content.
Chu Yuanxi felt that he was helpful, because there was no substantive content, and there was no undertaking on IP. The IP that Ba Ren will operate in the next place has little to do with TV series, and Zhang Dongdong's size is not capable of eating movies.
However, considering that she can still use her connections to get some convenience when making movies, this is also a matter of taking from each other. Ba Ren has two film plans for next year, and Chu Yuanxi, the director of the code, decided to code himself after communicating with Uncle Sheng, but there are still a lot of other trivial needs.
But just the above workload is quite easy for Chu Yuanxi, who is used to being busy, and he doesn't even need to work overtime until ten o'clock, which makes him still in the mood to watch the live broadcast at night.
The main reason is that one day Zhu Wei suddenly asked him about the blockchain, which made him unexpected, why is Zhu Wei still interested in the blockchain? This is too hardcore, right? It is not like Zhu Wei's painting style?
Unexpectedly, Zhu Wei said that she often watched Fang Shiling's live broadcast, but recently I heard that Fang Shiling suddenly began to introduce a way to speculate on foreign exchange through the blockchain every day, which also included entrepreneurial financing or something, which made her, a serious start-up shareholder, unable to understand.
“What!?!?”
Chu Yuanxi can be said to be stunned on the spot, half of his face is a question mark, half is an exclamation mark, and then he has to go to watch the live broadcast and see it is believing.
He originally went with the mood to save the woman who had lost his footing, but after looking at it for a while, he found that he was even more confused, even more confused than Zhu Wei. The state of the two people is "confused on the tree, you and me under the tree." ”
The key is that Chu Yuanxi's imaginary "Fang Shiling must be doing illegal hookups and letting go of herself" did not happen. He took a closer look at the process, and it seemed that he was just stepping on the line, and it didn't look right in any link, but judging from Chu Yuanxi's legal common sense, it seemed that it hadn't broken the law.
You must know that in China, foreign exchange margin trading, commonly known as foreign exchange speculation, is clearly illegal, as long as the funds are put into the trust account to do guaranteed transactions, one is not legal. But the project described in Fang Shiling's live broadcast is really not, and people are using the token of the blockchain project as a guarantee. If you strip off all the project packaging, it is equivalent to pressing the token in China and betting on the ups and downs abroad.
The key is that if what Fang Shiling said is true, the "earned part" after winning the bet can earn foreign exchange, and the surplus is directly settled overseas. As for the principal, it cannot be converted into foreign currency, but you can choose to continue to do it, or you can go back the way you come and get back the corresponding token.
Of course, if you bet wrong, you won't be able to get the token back, and if you want to play, you have to continue to add tokens.
This is magical, because the settlement shows that someone outside the country pays for her token, but who will pay for an inexplicable token?
It's just that Chu Yuanxi can't investigate even if he is curious, people engage in overseas settlement of cryptocurrency, that is, encryption in encryption, it is better to ask Fang Shiling directly on WeChat to see if people have blocked themselves.
Therefore, looking at the whole process, Chu Yuanxi really did not dare to judge that it was illegal to exchange foreign exchange in the way of blockchain, because it did not involve the purchase and sale of foreign currency. Participants all use their local currency to buy tokens, and the local currency is still in the domestic bank account to which the token belongs, and there has been no transfer.
In fact, since last year, there are two most affordable ways for bigwigs to obtain foreign exchange, one is to bet on the Pre_IPO of domestic start-ups, and when they go to the NASDAQ IPO, the invested equity can naturally be sold on the New York Stock Exchange for $, and everyone is happy. The other is that the code miner opens a mining farm, and after obtaining bitcoins, it is directly sold on overseas exchanges.
This kind of behavior is quite difficult to characterize, and can be barely regarded as a non-illegal way to exchange foreign exchange. The reason why it is reluctantly regarded as not illegal is that this method does not consume the country's foreign exchange reserves, does not touch the sensitive nerves of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and directly exchanges bitcoin for foreign exchange abroad, and does not trade the local currency to foreigners or foreign accounts in the process, so there is no impact on the local currency.
But the reluctance lies in the fact that this is equivalent to an export trade, except that the export is not physical goods loaded on trucks and ships, but the production of virtual currency and then sold to foreign countries through network cables. Theoretically, then, such transactions should still be settled through the National Bank.
It's just that the sale of virtual assets has been in a semi-regulated state, and there are some unclear points, so it has not been declared illegal.
But why is there entrepreneurship and financing in it? This makes Chu Yuanxi even more strange, he has to watch Fang Shiling's live broadcast continuously, and occasionally give some gifts or something.
If it really wasn't illegal, Chu Yuanxi even had some kind of delusion, this is still a matter of ten thousand families giving birth to Buddhas? He knows that there are a large number of people in China who have foreign exchange needs, and they are very anxious, for example, a high school classmate recently fought a divorce lawsuit in the United States to fight for custody, and then he was just in time for his children to go to kindergarten and needed money. If the kindergarten cannot be arranged smoothly, the son may be awarded to the other party.
Chu Yuanxi's old classmates are anxious about this, and the domestic parents are anxious to sell the house, but even if they sell it, they can't remit it, and the state supervision is getting stricter and stricter, so they can only be anxious. If you can remit it, you can't do it in a hurry, even if it is pumped by a middleman in large amounts, it is necessary to remit it.
In the end, it was Chu Yuanxi who went back to high school to give a speech, and the old classmates knew that he was developed, and then quickly asked for help. This kind of thing is good for reputation, and it does not damage the interests of the company, so it is finally solved smoothly.
As for Fang Shiling's model, on the surface, only the rise and fall of the bet can settle the balance into foreign exchange, and it does not solve these needs based on exchange and even willing to pay a large cost, because the wrong bet is just a dry loss, and there is no form of exchange.
But the problem is that you can play hedging with two numbers, so that you can ignore the ups and downs of foreign exchange? It's just that if you want to complete this operation in foreign exchange movements, you need to carry out high-frequency trading, and you have to pay a lot of fees.
However, Chu Yuanxi listened to Zhu Wei about the concept of venture capital, and when he watched the live broadcast for three days in a row, Fang Shiling didn't mention a word, so he didn't know the point.
And after all, he couldn't devote too much attention to this kind of thing, because he himself didn't have the need to exchange currency. So as the time came to Double Twelve, Chu Yuanxi had already put all his attention on the #Dum Jun System# activity released by Lu Yu.
Although the planning of the event was proposed by Chu Yuanxi, he only gave the big framework, which is equivalent to formulating a strategy, the former enemy commander-in-chief is Lu Yu, and all the processes need him to practice.
Lu Yu's command is very layered, and the first batch of investments is star resources.
At this time, the Toutiao official was concentrating on observing e-commerce data. Double 12 is also a sales festival, although it is not as big as Double 11, but it can be regarded as a return event of Double 11, and the traffic is not low, especially many food e-commerce, focusing on promoting at this time, and the amount of goods is not small.
Moreover, Douyin is promoting the Luban e-commerce system as an important new product development this year. As a result, all of a sudden, a large number of celebrities used verified accounts to send out videos with uniform labels, which made the official feel inexplicable for a while, and then they couldn't find out which operation department was engaged in the activity? And why did you choose such a day? Doesn't this add to the chaos?
In particular, Zhang Yishan's airborne landing surprised the official. This level of star parachuting has long been communicated, and it is also officially welcomed, the time has been agreed, and the traffic has been allocated, and even the entrance has been reserved in the search page.
But why can't we understand this video you posted? What the hell is this? Why do you have to put an inexplicable label?
The team in charge of celebrity operations was immediately confused, and after checking internally for a long time, they couldn't find which brainless planner and main promoter of this faint monarch system activity? At the same time, after seeing Zhang Yishan's airborne video, other departments all ran to ask, after coordinating so many stars, why is there no internal rumor at all? Moreover, why didn't a separate interface be made? What about personalized special effect stickers? The problem is all here!
But before there was time to think, the second group of troops who arrived on the battlefield arrived. Ba Ren Entertainment's two tubas followed up soon after the celebrity bombardment, releasing several carefully selected videos, and at the same time, Lu Yu also established a large number of Douyin trumpets during his reign, all of which came in handy today, flashing a wave in the same posture.
Immediately after that, a large number of middle-waist accounts who worked together concentrated their efforts and popped out the videos that had been prepared for a long time. Suddenly, hundreds of entries were crammed under the event page, which then triggered a technical follow-up.
The so-called technical follow-up means that there are many professional content creators who adopt the "mechanical creation" model, as long as a certain phenomenon occurs and certain conditions are met, they don't want to just close their eyes and follow the trend, and there is no need to analyze the factors of the target work that are worth following, and it's over.
In addition, there are also a group of wild players who have continuously swiped star videos, some have noticed the rapid growth of likes, some have seen interesting comments and answers, and some have noticed the content and tags to inspire and create quality content to join the event.
As the designer of the plan, these are all factors that Lu Yu must calculate, but the official suddenly saw a certain phenomenon, and it was too late to analyze the causes, so he could only passively manage it according to the rules.
So when encountering this phenomenon, the first reaction is, of course, - the traffic is tilted!
As a result, when the incident was submitted to Zhang Ming, the president of the group, Zhang Ming's reaction was more confused than everyone else! When did we do this activity? Looking at the screen full of #faint monarch system, Zhang Mingxin said How come I don't know? Are the people on the product line funny? The system is what the hell is you? Is this the network that looks at the system stream too much?
At this moment, in his WeChat, Chu Yuanxi's message column jumped: We have engaged in an activity of the faint monarch system, didn't we trouble you, right?
Zhang Ming: ???
Immediately after, he suddenly reacted and was furious: You have planted people within us?
Chu Yuanxi: How is it possible! What do you want?
Zhang Minggang wanted to question why there is still a skew in the traffic of non-governmental activities...... Isn't this the mini-game of "Unconscious Gentleman"? Grandma's traffic actually rubbed on the official's head? The key is to ask him to rub it! I should have bought this little game in the first place.
He returned the written words and re-typed them: How much did you spend on advertising?
Chu Yuan Xixin said in his heart, why do you find fault with me? Hehe! The gray domain that tramples on the rules is my strong point!
He immediately explained: This is not an advertisement, what kind of advertisement is no product? If you want to talk about the promotion cost, it is only a few million.
Zhang Ming: This is impossible! So many celebrities have gone down in person, millions? I don't believe it!
